Safia Iman 2006

Safia specialises in the area of regulation and discipline whilst expanding her expertise in related public law. She has a unique skill set and brings an extensive range of expertise which includes both representing and advising professional bodies across different sectors.

She has appeared extensively on a range of matters as an internal advocate for a leading health regulator. She has worked as a Senior Crown Prosecutor for the Crown Prosecution Service and therefore retains particular strengths in combining criminal law considerations within regulatory proceedings . She has previously worked as legal adviser to a non- ministerial government body and advised on considerations relevant to regulation and consultation.

She has recently completed her role as the Head of Fitness to Practise for another leading health regulator and provided oversight on all strategic and legal matters relating to Fitness to Practise.

Safia retains an intricate understanding of the internal matrix and challenges for professional bodies and therefore not only can she appear in proceedings for or against organisations, but can also uniquely provide advice in investigation, policy and strategic work to assist regulatory organisations.

Safia is very approachable and has an adaptable communication style which assists her when advising at senior levels or dealing with vulnerable professionals. She is available to advise or provide representation both in regulatory and related public law work and continues a small practise in criminal law.
